i might recommend cleaning cores twice per hour
or more often
or possibly have coreadm in the chroot set to send all cores to /dev/null?
* tang isn’t sure you can configure coreadm two ways — that’s a kernel property, tang thinks
* niqui doesn’t know how to do that
* tang wants a devnull filesystem
tang may be right
mount -t devnull none /opt/http/var/core
DEVNULL FILESYSTEM
* tang puts a stick into tang’s eye, to lighten the mood
* tang schemes. what if we make directories at /opt/http/var/core/core.httpd.##### or whatever they should be, for all 64k process ids?
hahaha
that would make them not dump. and it would be an evil hack that future generations would curse us for.
* niqui is amused to see the effect that changing the service-init-frequency rate on inetd has had on inetd forking.
inetd is fuck
* niqui didn’t even know inetd *would* spawn children
leave anything that vile alone long enough in a warm enough space, and it will breed.
